Question

I've got a 14 mm thyroid nodule in my right lobe that's grown by 2 mm over the last 1.5 years. A FNA in September 2014 showed it was an adenomatoid nodule with cystic degeneration and there was scant thick colloid in the smears. The FNAC in November 2014 showed suboptimal cellularity. I had a CT scan recently for my neck, and it came back completely normal. My thyroid tests from a few months ago were also normal. Should I consider getting another FNAC or is surgery the next step?
